Anyone catch the fed official saying thousands of trailers won't go to NO?
Aerial view of thousands of new empty trailers, he told an interviewer that these trailers would not be going to NO. Rather they would be used for future crises. There were other ways to help people in NO rather than trailers.

Won't those folks in NO be surprised to learn the trailer they have been waiting on for over 6 mos is not coming at all.

Not sure which network broadcast this, or who the official speaking was. Anyone have a link?

1. This is old news ...
This broke a long time ago ... Everyone in NO is FULLY aware of the trailers sitting up in Arkansas ... The "reason" being that "flood codes" of all things, would not allow them to be moved down ...

I mean ... If there is ANYTHING a president could do with ONE freakin phone call ... Jesus, get on the freakin phone and say "MOVE THE GDed TRAILERS DOWN ...

This whole, we are planning for the next disaster is a neat little spin they have just broke out ... I heard if the first time on CSpan the other day ...

2. "we are planning for the next disaster" is what caught my eye...
...but don't overlook the fact that they are still not telling people who are waiting for trailers that they are never coming.
